BOZEMAN â One of the biggest impacts this pandemic has had has been the economic impact.
âThere shouldnât be any shame or guilt associated with availing yourself of these programs. Theyâre designed to help our community and really we can make your day-to-day life a lot more manageable,â said Brian Guyer, housing director with HRDC.
As the housing director for HRDC, Guyer has seen the need for assistance here.
âHousing needs kind of goes across the spectrum here in Gallatin County. Everybody has heard about the escalating housing costs. The reality is at the bottom of that property ladder those prices have escalated too,â he said.

BOZEMAN â The Gallatin Valley Food Bank is searching for local food distributors to help supply nutritious, kid-friendly snacks for the Healthy KidsPack Program.
âItâs really a triple-win scenario, explained HRDC s Donavan Glasgow. We get to provide some really great healthy, high-quality snacks and food to kiddos, the local Montana producers and farmers get an extra source of revenue from us, and kids in our program get the chance to taste an access through our local food system, which they might not have had the opportunity to do so otherwise.â
